The Interplay 'Tween Reading Comprehenshun, Edumacashun, and Intelligense

By Matthew Hayward

Edumacashun, intelligense, an' reading comprehenshun all play crucial parts in the cognitiv devlopment of indivijuals. While it's often assumd that these 3 areas are intrinsically linkd, the relationship ain't always straightforwrd.

In the scope of edumacashun, it represent the systematic acquisition of facts an' theories typicaly taught in skools or universites. It's a process of lerning an' unlearning, constant absorption of knoledge. Yet, edumacashun don't always equate to being smart, it gives pplz a foundation of knoledge, but it don't guarantee undrstanding or the ability to apply this knoledge in real life contexts. Thus, edumacashun ain't a perfect measure of a person's intelligense.

Intelligense, in another respect, is the ability to acquire, undrstand, and apply knoledge. It's the capacity to adapt to new situations, solve problems, an' make decisions. Intelligense ain't tied to the amount of edumacashun a person haz received. Sum of the most innovative minds in history weren't necessarily the most edumacated.

Reading comprehenshun is a vital cog in this mechanism. The ability to read text, interpret it, an' undrstand its meanin' is a skill influenced by both edumacashun an' intelligense. Even when language is marred by poor grammar, misspelled words, an' misplaced terminology, a highly intelligent person might still decipher the intnded meaning.

The essay u'r reading now is a testament to this theory. The grammar ain

When Government Demands Papers We Refuse

By Matthew Hayward 9/19/2025 The Supreme Court just paused a lower court order that had limited federal immigration stops in Los Angeles. That stay lets federal agents resume roving patrols and interior operations that critics say rely on appearance, language, job, or neighborhood to pick people for questioning. This matters because it normalizes a posture of suspicion. Checkpoints miles inland and roving patrols turn movement inside the country into a condition to be earned rather than a freedom to be enjoyed. The government already claims expanded authority inside the 100-mile border zone. That claim, plus an open green light for stops based on appearance, is a recipe for arbitrary enforcement. Philosophy of resistance John Locke told us that the consent of the governed is the foundation of legitimate power. When rulers invade life, liberty, or property, or when they become arbitrary disposers of people’s lives and fortunes, the social compact is dissolve...

The National Guard Was Never Meant to Be a Federal Tool

By Matthew Hayward 7/13/2025 Let me say this clearly: the National Guard was created to defend the states, not to enforce the will of the federal government. It was meant to serve as a local militia—an armed extension of the people under the control of the state. The highest authority a Guard member was ever supposed to answer to is their elected governor, not a bureaucrat in Washington, not a federal agency, and certainly not a sitting president weaponizing military force on domestic soil. Yes, I know the laws have changed. I know the Montgomery Amendment, the National Defense Act, and the Supreme Court's decision in Perpich v. DoD rewrote the rules. But legal doesn’t mean constitutional. Gradualism doesn’t legitimize usurpation. You don’t get to trample foundational principles and call it progress. What’s happening now—federalizing state forces to deploy them in cities without gubernatorial consent—is blasphemous. It's an insult to the very spirit of the Constitution. The ...

How the Drug War Killed Liberty

By Matthew Hayward 10/25/2025 When the State Declares War on Behavior Earlier this month, President Trump ordered United States military strikes off the coast of Venezuela, killing alleged “narcoterrorists.” He later boasted, “ We’re just going to kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. ” Those words should chill every American who believes in liberty. Fifty years after Nixon declared his war on drugs, it has evolved from domestic raids to international executions, all under the same failed philosophy that government violence can cure human vice. When the state declares war on human behavior, it always loses and takes the people down with it. Every prison cell, every overdose, every cartel bullet is a monument to the arrogance of government trying to legislate morality. Back in 1988, Ron Paul said it best on The Morton Downey Jr. Show: “You can’t legislate morality. You can’t force people to be better by passing laws. If you want to solve moral and social problems, y...
